optimistic.






well, after an incredibly exhausting weekend, i have finally found the key to being optimistic - relying on God's strength. lots happened over the weekend, particularly on sunday night. it was crazy on msn that night! because of this, my monday was completely and utterly wrecked. i had the ultimatum of bad days. it was really bad. but, on monday night, i made adri promise me that we'd always keep each other in line and that this week, we'd learn to rely on God and him alone. not friends, or family, or each other, but only on God. after this, things started to change. i felt God's peace and yesterday was made so much more bearable, in fact, it was better than bearable, because it was a good day. despite having no bludge subjects, it was an ok day, i think the fact that we had art in last period contributed to that fact, because it was so stress-relieving.

today was a great day! it was bludge subjects all day - double art: where i started my distorted face drawing in charcoal (after nervously working in pencil for two lessons because i refused to use charcoal), double maths: where we had to get our last cancer injection which really really hurt, bible: where we did some exergesis on psalm 121 and double sport: which because most team seasons were done was bludge. but it was fun bludge. it was a free-study option too. so, me, dora, amber, jarrad and several others headed up to the art department (which is my new home in the school), and me and dora used the MACS to do some photoshopping and then i continued doing my charcoal drawing while listening to my iPod while talking to jarrad about how his dad stole raisins from safeway - lol. so my afternoon was thoroughly enjoyable and relaxing. theres nothing more relaxing than drawing and music together.

"the joy of the Lord is my strength".

i also uploaded some professional pictures of the formal up on facebook:
